![]() Fleet reinforcements will now make better choices when selecting shipyards to reinforce from and should better consider systems with multiple shipyards as well as systems connected by bypasses. The time taken for Fleet reinforcements and MIA fleets will now be more accurate when compared to simply flying the fleets to the target system. Fleets containing one ship type and one ship should also now appear in the fleet manager. ![]() We have addressed several issues with regards to the Fleet Manager, namely that it was possible to create fleets larger than the command limit, which resulted in large amounts of single-ship fleets when attempting to reinforce those fleets. AI empires will now also construct Ecumenopolis, choose better Planet Killer weapons, and are better at fighting Crime. AI starbase construction has also been improved and will now use more varied setups when building their starbases and making use of special buildings where it makes sense. We also have gone over the Building and District weights for AI empires, which will further improve your AI opponents’ economy. The AI also has the ability to turn these sub plans on and off based on their economic situation, allowing them to react to unexpected resource deficits, and in our testing has lowered the frequency of AI economic collapses. The AI now uses a single base plan but relies more heavily on sub plans, which allow the AI to react more easily to unexpected developments throughout the game. For the 3.2 Update, we have updated the economic scripts used by the AI. Previously, AI used to follow an economic plan based on the stage of the game they were in. The long-term goal is to move towards having a challenging AI, while still keeping the game entertaining to players and making AI empires feel more distinctive. AI IMPROVEMENTSĪs part of the Custodian Initiative, we have set goals for ourselves, one of which is constantly working on and improving AI empires in Stellaris. We also have revisited some of the older anomaly events and added new options, to add more depth to these older anomalies. This will add more depth to some anomalies that previously only had a single outcome (for example the Gigantic Skeleton Anomaly). More to Explore We have added new anomalies for the Gas Giant, Asteroid, and uninhabitable anomaly categories. These events vary in power and complexity and will only trigger the first time a planet is terraformed.īut there’s more, we’ve also done some work with the AI budgets to make the AI more likely to terraform planets to optimal planet types, and will be more likely to pick Terraforming technologies and Ascension perks under certain circumstances. Terraforming planets now have a chance to randomly trigger events, to add more flavor to the overall process of terraforming. With the focus on Terraforming in the Aquatics Species Pack, the Custodian Team has been hard at work to improve the experience of terraforming as a whole. They will also get bonus trust growth and extra envoys. To that end, empires with the Pompous Purists Civic cannot receive diplomatic proposals, but may still send them. The idea is based on an elven fantasy, where they are willing to negotiate with other species, but only on their own terms. In our latest addition to the Humanoids Species Pack, the Pompous Purists Civic allows for a diplomatic playstyle, but for Xenophobes. Launching alongside the Aquatics Species Pack, the 3.2 Patch, named after renowned Sci-Fi author Frank Herbert, brings along with it many bug fixes, improvements to performance and AI, as well as new features for the Humanoids Species Pack and the base game.
